TO    HIGH    SCHOOL   GRADUATES 

The  object  of  this  little  book  is  not 
to  merely  set  forth  the  many  advant- 
ages of  Lombard  as  one  of  the  most 
progressive  of  the  Mid-West  Colleges; 
it  hopes  to  answer  a  few  of  the  ques- 
tions so  frequently  asked  by  high 
school  graduates,  looking  for  an  up- 
to-date  college,  and  by  parents  seek- 
ing an  institution  to  which  they  can 
confidently  entrust  their  children  dur- 
ing the  four  most  important  years  of 
their  lives. 

Lombard  has  many  advantages  not 
described  here,  but  it  is  Lombard's 
hope  that  should  you  be  interested  in 
college  education,  you  will  continue 
your  investigation  after  reading  this 
book,  by  writing  for  more  information, 
or  better,  by  calling  at  the  college  of- 
fice and  getting  first  hand  the  real  ans- 
wer to  your  inquiries. 

A  little  advice  to  the  High  School 
Graduate,  may  not  be  amiss,  for  re- 
duced to  a  systematic  plan,  the  steps 
are  as  follows : 

1.  Graduate  from  High  School. 

2.  Investigate  the  colleges  of  your 
acquaintance. 

3.  Select  the  one,  most  democratic 
and  best  suited  to  your  individual 
needs  and  tastes. 

4.  Get  in  touch  with  some  member 
of  its  faculty  and  state  your  prob- 
lem. 

5.  Lay  out  your  course  of  study  so 
that  your  four  years  of  study  will 
give   you   the   desired   start   in   life. 

6.  Stick  to  your  course  of  study,  en- 
ter into  the  college  life,  and  profit 
by  your  own  exertions  and  per- 
haps the  sacrifices  of  others.

Joseph  M.  Tilden 

President. 

The  student  who  comes  to  Lom- 
bard is  at  once  among  friends.  At 
least  he  always  has  one  friend — 
Prexy.  Does  he  need  a  job?  a 
course  of  study?  a  mediator  with 
the  faculty?  or  advice — let  him  seek 
out  President  Tilden.  Any  day, 
and  almost  any  minute,  he  can  find 
him.  Honestly,  Prexy  would  rather 
talk  business  with  a  student  any 
day  than  with  mere  faculty. 

For  Dr.  Tilden  is  business  right 
through — hustling,  growing,  big 
business  at  that.  What  he  says  to 
the  Trustees,  goes.  So  it  does 
with  the  whole  body.  But  that  isn't 
all.  The  clubs  in  town  are  all  for 
him,  and  in  a  good  many  other 
towns,,  too.  His  faculty  co-oper- 
ates to  man  or  woman.  The  first 
few  years  here  every  decision 
meant  unanimous  action.  The 
alumni  stands  by  him.  That's  why 
the  Lombard  bank  account  has 
been  adding  up  by  thousands  and 
tens  of  thousands  and  into  hun- 
dred thousands  since  he  came  this 
way.  Last  Commencement  the 
climax  was  the  fifty-thousand  dol- 
lar present  for  the  Tompkins  Hall. 

Incidentally,  he's  a  real  educator. 
That's  the  why  of  all  the  rest.

OPPORTUNITY 

A  genius  for  statistics  once  compiled 
some  interesting  figures  on  opportunity 
for  leadership.  He  consulted  biogra- 
phies of  over  10,000  men  commonly 
considered  successful  and  found  that 
in  comparison  with  a  common  school 
education,  a  high  school  education,  and 
a  college  training,  men  with  no  edu- 
cation had  hardly  a  chance.  It  was 
further  revealed  that  the  lad  with  a 
common  school  education  has  one 
chance  in  9,000;  that  the  high  school 
course  increases  the  lad's  chances  22 
times;  and  that  a  college  training  gives 
the  young  man  200  times  the  chance  of 
the  boy  whose  education  stops  with  the 
common  schools.  The  final  conclusion 
was  that  the  college  graduate  is  pre- 
eminently successful. 

The  foregoing  would  seem  proof 
enough  that  a  college  education  must 
always  be  thought  of  as  a  great  oppor- 
tunity. To  every  young  man  or  wom- 
an who  has  any  capacity  at  all  for  lead- 
ership, it  is  a  challenge  to  seize  the 
opportunities  that  the  colleges  offer 
and  so  to  train  themselves  that  they 
may  take  the  places  of  responsibility 
that  are  now  calling  for  competent 
leadership.  When  it  is  recalled  that 
less  than  2%  of  American  men  are  col- 
lege graduates,  the  force  of  the  chal- 
lenge comes  with  particular  signifi- 
cance. 

Because  knowledge  is  power,  it  is 
apparent  that  leadership  will  always  be 
in  the  hands  of  college  men  and  college 
women.  Lombard  offers  large  oppor- 
tunities to  gain  the  power  that  makes 
for   leadership.

ADVANTAGES   OF  THE   SMALL 
COLLEGE 

When  a  student  comes  to  Lombard 
a  member  of  the  faculty  is  assigned  to 
him  as  his  class  adviser,  to  whom  he 
can  go  at  all  times  for  conferences  and 
who  is  always  willing  and  anxious  to 
help  the  student  in  arranging  sched- 
ules, making  up  work  or  even  getting 
out  of  trouble  if  such  a  thing  should 
happen. 

Look  over  the  following  list  and  see 
why  life  at  Lombard  is  profitable. 

1.  The  professors  are  friendly,  always 
willing  to  give  assistance  and  nev- 
er too  busy  to  help  and  encourage. 

2.  Lombard  spirit  is  known  all  over 
Illinois  on  account  of  the  demo- 
cratic feeling  between  students. 
There  are  no  snobs  and  no 
grouches. 

3.  A  committee  meets  the  new  girls 
when  they  arrive  at  Lombard  Hall. 
The  boys  are  introduced  to  tn° 
campus  and  learn  the  Lombard 
traditions   in   a   very    short   time. 

4.  Every  one  has  good  opportunity 
of  getting  into  the  various  athletic 
teams,  glee  clubs  and  other  stu- 
dent organizations. 

5.  It  is  easy  to  be  an  average  or  even 
a  "big"  student  in  the  small  col- 
lege, while  the  same  student  might 
be  absolutely  lost  elsewhere. 

6.  Lombard  is  on  the  edge  of  the 
city,  away  from  temptations  and 
the  opportunity  to  spend  money; 
yet  near  enough  to  town  to  go 
when   necessary  or   desirable. 

7.   Living     expenses     are     unques- 
tionably  lower. 
8.   Summed    up    in    a    word,    Lombard 
is   democratic,  efficient  and  whole- 
some.

Location 

Lombard  college  is  located  in  Gales- 
burg,  Illinois,  a  city  of  about  twenty- 
five  thousand  people,  on  the  direct  lines 
of  the  Chicago,  Burlington  &  Quincy 
and  the  Atchison,  Topeka  &  Santa  Fe 
Railroads,  about  170  miles  from  Chi- 
cago. Being  also  on  a  direct  line  of  the 
Burlington  from  St.  Louis  and  Quincy 
to  Minneapolis  and  St.  Paul,  and  on 
other  branches,  Galesburg  is  easily  ac- 
cessible from  any  part  of  the  Missis- 
sippi valley. 

Galesburg  is  one  of  the  pioneer 
-towns  of  Illinois,  in  the  heart  of  a  rich 
'farming  district,  long  noted  for  its  pro- 
gressive activities  and  its  educational 
advantages.  It  combines  the  induce- 
ments of  large  manufacturing  plants 
and  modern  stores,  excellent  facilities 
for  transportation,  good  newspapers, 
and  fine  public  schools.  It  is  also  a 
city  of  homes  and  of  attractive  resi- 
dences, lawns,  noble  shade  trees  out- 
side the  immediate  business  center,  and 
well  paved  streets. 

The  location  of  Lombard  College  is 
particularly  fitting.  The  campu  s  of 
thirteen  acres  is  situated  in  the  south- 
eastern part  of  Galesburg,  far  enough 
from  the  business  district  and  the  rail- 
roads to  make  it  especially  pleasant  and 
healthful.  Here  conditions  are  favor- 
able for  the  development  of  the  Lom- 
bard communal  spirit  which  has  been 
recognized  for  many  years.  Yet  the 
campus  is  within  easy  walking  distance 
of  the  principal  stores,  railway  stations 
and  public  centers.  The  Lombard 
street  car  of  the  Galesburg  city  ser- 
vice takes  one  in  seven  minutes  from 
the  downtown  district  directly  to  the 
college. 


EDUCATIONAL    STANDING 

Educationally,  Lombard  is  listed 
among  so  many  of  the  accredited  col- 
lege lists  of  the  country  that  its  stand- 
ing is  to-day  unquestioned.  Its  credits 
are  accepted  at  their  face  value  by  the 
State  Universities. 

After  all,  the  real  merit  of  a  college 
lies  in  its  faculty,  and  a  knowledge  of 
the  colleges  and  universities  from 
which  they  received  their  various  de- 
grees. The  following  are  some  of  the 
colleges  represented  at  Lombard: 

Beloit  College,- Springfield  Y.  M.  C. 
A.  College,  Eureka  College,  Kansas 
State  Normal,  Cornell  College,  Wor- 
cester Polytechnic  Institute,  Johnson 
Bible  College,  Illinois  University.  Ohio 
University,  Iowa  University,  Univer- 
sity of  California,  Wisconsin  Univer- 
sity, Chicago  University,  Brown  Uni- 
versity, Leland  Stanford  University, 
University  of  Michigan,  New  York 
University,   and   Harvard  University. 

It  is  the  aim  of  Lombard  to  arrange 
its  various  courses  of  study  so  as  to 
meet  all  the  academic  requirements  of 
the  State  University.  This  has  been 
done  to  the  satisfaction  of  the  univer- 
sity inspectors.  This  is  not  the  com- 
plete aim,  however,  for  it  is  the  desire 
of  the  Lombard  faculty  that  each  stu- 
dent shall  specialize  in  some  work  dur- 
ing his  academic  course  and  thus  best 
fit  him  to  take  a  prominent  place  in  the 
community  after  graduation.  This  po- 
sition may  be  one  of  the  professions, 
in  teaching,  in  business  or  commercial 
life,  or  as  a  scientist  in  one  of  the 
progressive    industries    of    the    country. 

Following  this  line  of  procedure, 
Lombard  has  become  recognized  as 
one  of  the  most  progressive  of  the 
small  colleges  of  the  Middle  West  and 
is  ably  living  up  to  this  reputation.

CAMPUS  AND  BUILDINGS 

The  Lombard  Campus  is  but  a  short 
walk  from  the  business  part  of  Gales- 
burg,  and  has  frequent  street  car  ser- 
vice. Toward  the  end  of  the  line,  the 
stranger  sees  tall  trees  and  open  spaces 
suddenly  become  a  park,  really  beau- 
tiful. Leaving  the  car  at  the  first  cor- 
ner, he  is  glad  to  take  the  diagonal 
walk  to  the  door  of  Old  Main.  Double 
aisles  of  handsome  elms  and  ever- 
greens stretch  south  and  east  before 
him;  under  their  green  canopy  he 
makes   satisfied  approach. 

Hesitating  at  the  entrance,  he  looks 
along  the  lilac  and  honeysuckle  bushes 
and  sees  The  Lombard  Elm,  the  treas- 
ure of  the  neighborhood,  town  and 
county.  While  the  visitor  vaguely  tries 
to  estimate  the  elm's  140-foot  span  of 
shade,  he  wanders  into  the  peon}^  cir- 
cle or  brushes  the  hydrangea  row  along 
Old  Main's  north  wall.  Deviating  then 
into  the  hedge  of  bridal  wreath,  the 
glory  of  Commencement,  if  he  but 
knew  it — he  comes  out  at  the  side  door 
of  Old  Main. 

He  is  now  fully  campused.  Tomp- 
kins Science  Hall  is  in  front  along  a 
curving  walk.  The  Phi  Delta  Theta 
House  is  down  the  path  to  the  right. 
Farther  on  is  the  large  and  appropri- 
ately constructed  Gymnasium,  flanked 
by  tennis  courts  and  Lombard  Field. 
The  large  residence  building  at  the  ex- 
treme left,  toward  which  all  walks  and 
paths  seem  to  lead,  is  Lombard  Hall, 
home  of  the  out-of-town  girls. 

On  the  way  out  toward  Locust  street 
are  Sorority  Bungalows.  Up  the  street 
is  the  large  Sigma  Nu  House.  The 
Vocal  Art  Studio,  individual  and  artis- 
tic, faces  the  campus.  No  wonder  is  it 
that  Lombard  claims  the  most  beauti- 
ful campus  in  Illinois  and  still  less 
wonder  that  the  claim  has  never  been 
disputed.

PUBLICATIONS 

The  Lombard  Review 

The  Lombard  Review,  a  magazine  of 

time  honored  publication,  has  just  un- 
dergone a  complete  change  and  will 
soon  become  one  of  the  most  interest- 
ing and  progressive  magazine  in  any 
college.  The  Lombard  Stock  Company, 
which  owns  the  Review,  recently  voted 
to  change  its  constitution  so  that  its 
editors  and  officers  should  be  elected 
by  the  student  body,  every  member  of 
which,  according  to  the  new  constitu- 
tion, is  a  subscriber  to   the   Review. 

The  Review  has  combined  with  the 
Alumnus,  the  official  publication  of  the 
Alumni  Association,  and  together  they 
are  going  to  publish  a  monthly  maga- 
zine of  fifty  or  more  pages,  which  will 
go  to  graduates,  as  well  as  undergrad- 
uates, and  which  will  be  a  magazine  of 
interest  and  information  to  everyone 
interested  in  Lombard. 

This  is  a  novelty  so  far  as  college 
publications  is  concerned,  and  is  one 
more  of  the  many  progressive  things 
that  Lombard  is  doing. 

The  Stroller 

Another  time  honored  publication, 
and  one  which  is  the  envy  of  year 
books  of  many  of  our  small  colleges,  is 
the  Lombard  Stroller.  So  excellent  was 
this  publication  in  the  year  1919-1920 
that  the  engraver  purchased  a  large 
number  of  the  books  at  the  regular 
price  as  samples  to  send  to  other  col- 
leges for  publishing  and  advertising 
purposes. 

The  editors  and  managers  of  this 
publication  are  elected  annually  by  the 
Junior  class,  which  has  charge  of  the 
book,  and  students  as  well  as  alumni, 
look  forward  to  this  catalog  of  events 
with  the  keenest  of  interest.

LOMBARD  HALL 

Lombard  Hall  is  the  home  of  all  the 
women  college  students,  who  do  not 
live  in  town,  and  a  happier  family  could 
not  be  found  in  America.  The  girls 
living  at  Lombard  Hall  have  a  form  of 
self-government  which  is  eminently 
successful.  They  make  their  own 
rules,  elect  their  own  officers,  and  pun- 
ish such  members  of  their  own  body 
as  do  not  live  within  the  rules.  The 
Dean  of  Women  lives  at  Lombard  Hall 
and  as  the  friend  of  every  student  in 
the  college  is  looked  to  with  admiration 
and  respect.  The  Dietitian  of  Lombard 
Hall,  who  has  charge  of  the  dining 
room,  the  meals,  the  help,  and  the 
building,  is  a  Lombard  graduate  in 
Home  Economics  and  a  young  woman 
of  force  and  character. 

Under  such  conditions  it  is  not  at  all 
surprising  that  a  democratic  spirit  pre- 
vails, that  cliques  and  snobbishness  are 
unknown,  and  that  the  Lombard  girls 
are  happy  in  their  college  life  and  suc- 
cessful in   their   studies. 

The  rules,  which  the  girls  have  made, 
have  definite  hours  for  meals,  a  speci- 
fied time  for  study  and  a  certain  time 
when  they  may  leave  and  must  return 
to  the  Hall.  This  systematic  planning 
makes  their  work  easier  and  their 
pleasure  greater.  A  list  of  chaperones 
has  been  selected  by  the  girls  with  the 
approval  of  the  faculty  and  every  par- 
ent who  has  investigated  the  system 
speaks  highly  of  it  and  approves 
heartily  of  its  details.

CHAPEL 

Chapel  occurs  three  times  a  week  at 
Lombard  and  a  careful  system  of  these 
assembly  exercises  has  been  arranged 
so  as  to  make  them  pleasant  occasions 
of  interest  and  instruction.  Monday  is 
Lombard  day,  the  faculty  and  the  stu- 
dents alternating  with  one  another  in 
supplying  the  program.  Wednesday 
is  the  day  for  outside  speakers  and 
during  the  past  year  speakers  of  local, 
state  wide,  and  even  national  fame  hav 
been  engaged  to  fill  the  hour.  The  fol 
lowing  have  addressed  Lombard  Chap- 
el this  semester  :  Carl  Sandburg,  the 
poet;  Glen  Dillard  Gunn,  the  Chicago 
pianist;  Professor  E.  C.  Hayes,  of  Illi- 
nois University;  Dr.  L.  B.  Fisher,  Dean 
of  Ryder  Divinity  School;  Dr.  R.  E. 
Hieronymous,  the  Community  Expert; 
Ralph  Dennis,  Northwestern  Univer- 
sity; Dr.  W.  P.  Morgan,  President  of 
Macomb  Normal;  Edgar  C.  Raine,  the 
Alaskan  Explorer. 

RELIGIOUS   CENSUS 

At  the  beginning  of  the  year  Presi- 
dent Tilden  takes  a  census  where  each 
student  states  his  denominationl  pref- 
erences. A  careful  list  is  made  of  all 
students  belonging  to  each  denomina- 
tion and  sent  to  the  local  pastors.  They 
in  turn  get  in  touch  with  the  individual 
students  interesting  them  in  church 
going,  Sunday  School  or  Young  Peo- 
ple's work.  All  students  are  advised 
to  attend  church  Sunday  morning  and 
a  large  proportion  of  the  students  do 
so.  No  prejudice  is  raised,  but  by  the 
simple  system  described  the  students 
feel  the  importance  of  church  going 
and  appreciate  the  good  derived  from 
regular  attendance.

STUDENT  ORGANIZATIONS 

Every  student  in  Lombard  belongs 
to  some  organization  or  other,  many  of 
them  belonging  to  more  than  one.  This 
is  one  of  the  distinct  advantages  of  a 
small  college.  With  all  this  in  mind  it 
is  the  desire  of  the  faculty  that  every 
student  shall  take  part  in  at  least  one 
activity  outside  of  his   scholastic  work. 

Athletics,  of  course,  is  one  of  the 
strongest  ,  student  organizations  and 
Lombard  is  not  only  particularly  strong 
in  this  activity,  but  happy  in  its  suc- 
cesses. 

The  Men's  Glee  Club  and  the  Wom- 
en's Glee  Club  are  fine  organizations, 
doing  excellent  work,  and  accomplish- 
ing much  good  not  only  for  the  individ- 
ual members,  but  for  the  college  itself. 

The  Home  Economics  Club  is  a 
strong,  active  organization  composed 
of  the  girls  who  are  majoring  in  this 
branch.  The  aim  of  this  club  is  to  pro- 
mote interest  and  scholarship  through 
special  problem  study  and  the  presen- 
tation of  papers  on  Home  Economic 
subjects  of  special  interest. 

The  Alchemist's  Club  comprising 
those  men  and  women  who  are  special- 
izing in  Chemistry  is  one  of  the  strong- 
est scholastic  clubs  in  the  College. 
Such  fine  work  have  they  done  and 
such  excellent  spirit  have  they  shown 
that  the  Club  has  been  accepted  as  a 
member  of  the  Theta  Chi  Delta,  a  nat- 
ional honorary   fraternity  for  chemists. 

The  Commerce  Club  is  composed  of 
students  enrolled  in  the  courses  in 
business    administration.     The    purpose

of  this  club  is  to  give  the  students  a 
closer  acquaintance  with  commercial 
practices.  Business  men  from  Gales- 
burg   and    Chicago   are    co-operating: 

The  Fine  Arts  Club  consists  of  stu- 
dents who  are  taking  special  or  private 
work  in  Vocal  Art,  Expression  or  Pi- 
ano. Frequent  recitals,  by  members  of 
the  club,  are  given  and  the  club  itself 
keeps  in  touch  with  the  various  artistic 
attractions  that  come  to  town. 

The  Campus  Players.  This  club  is 
made  up  of  students  who  have  appeared 
in  any  school  play.  This  year  they  have 
presented  several  groups  of  one-act 
plays. 

Debating  and  Oratory  are  important 
parts  of  Lombard  student  life.  Prizes 
are  offered  for  excellence  in  this  work. 
Among  these  prizes  are  the  Swan- 
Lawton  oratory  prizes  of  fifteen  and 
ten  dollars  given  annually  for  oratory 
and  extemporaneous  addresses;  the 
Bullman  debating  prize  offered  annual- 
ly for  excellence  in  debating;  the 
Townsend  Contest,  two  prizes  offered 
annually  for  excellence  in  Expression 
and  the  Speech  Arts. 

Summed  up  in  a  word,  it  may  be  said 
that  Lombard's  democratic  spirit  ex- 
presses itself  most  favorably  through 
the  strong  and  progressive  activities 
among  the  students  where  no  thought 
of  click  or  fraternity  enters,  where 
each  student  seeks  to  get  the  most  for 
himself,  along  the  line  of  his  chosen 
specialty,  and  at  the  same  time  to  give 
to  his  fellow  students  more  than  he 
receives.

FRATERNITIES  AND 
SORORITIES 

Three  excellent  fraternities  and  the 
same  number  of  sororities  have  strong 
and  progressive  organizations  at  Lom- 
bard. The  fraternities  each  owns  a  fine 
fraternity  house,  where  they  sleep, 
study,  eat  all  their  meals  and  have  their 
recreation.  It  is  the  belief  of  Lombard 
that  fraternal  life  is  an  important  part 
of  education.  There  is  ample  oppor- 
tunity for  college  spirit  and  interfra- 
ternity  spirit  when  the  men  meet  on 
the  campus  and  in  the  halls  or  class 
rooms  of  any  small  college. 

The  Phi  Delta  Theta  frat  house  is  a 
fine  brick  structure  on  the  campus.  The 
Sigma  Nu  house,  a  block  away,  is 
a  thoroughly  up-to-date  residence,  and 
the  Tau  Delta  Theta  have  recently  pur- 
chased a  fine  house  directly  opposite 
the  athletic  field. 

Each  sorority  has  bungalows  or 
apartments  where  they  have  their  meet- 
ings, social  functions  and  their  initia- 
tions. These  buildings  are  attractive 
quarters  on  or  near  the  campus  and 
whenever  a  party  is  announced  by  one 
of  the  sororities  it  is  always  a  signal 
that  a  pleasant  time  is  coming.  The 
girls  do  not  live  in  their  sorority  houses 
but  are  all  happily  quartered  at  Lom- 
bard Hall  under  a  successful  self-gov- 
ernment system. 

The  Pi  Beta  Phi  and  the  Alpha  Xi 
Delta  sororities  own  beautiful  bunga- 
lows on  the  campus  where  their  meet- 
ings and  social  events  are  held.  The 
Delta  Zeta  girls  occupy  attractive 
quarters  just  a  step  away  from  the 
campus.

VOCATIONAL  GUIDANCE 
Lombard  College  is  one  of  the  first, 
and  perhaps  the  only,  small  eollcgc 
that  maintains  a  Bureau  of  Occupa- 
tional  Guidance  purely  for  the  benefit 
of  its  students.  This  Bureau  was  or- 
ganized a  year  ago  under  a  director 
who  has  made  a  careful  study  of  this 
work  and  whose  advice  and  judgment 
is  excellent. 

Thus  Lombard  students  have  further 
opportunity  of  getting  in  touch  with 
the  faculty.  The  director  assists  them 
in  so  shaping  their  studies  and  courses 
as  to  best  fit  them  to  take  up  the  work, 
after  graduation,   that  they  wish. 

"Finding  a  job"  is  the  simplest  part 
of  the  work,  fcr  Lombard  has  many 
more  inquiries  every  year,  for  gradu- 
ates, than  there  are  seniors  to  fill  the 
positions. 

COMMUNITY   SERVICE 

The  war  developed  a  form  of  service 
that  had  long  been  a  study,  but  which 
required  some  such  force  to  com- 
plete. Community  Service  is  the  nam 
of  this  new  necessity,  and  progressive 
colleges  to-day  are  offering  courses 
that  will  prepare  leaders  and  workers 
for  this  important  field. 

The  course  Lombard  offers  is  unique 
in  that  it  prepares  the  student  to  take 
charge  of  a  Recreational  Center,  to 
accept  a  position  as  Parish  Assistant 
in  ,  one  of  the  large  cosmopolitan 
churches,  so  many  of  which  are  now 
considering  the  community  idea  as  a 
new  duty.  Withal  the  course  prepares 
the  student  to  accept  leadership  or  ad- 
ministrative positions  in  any  social, 
community  work. 

Many  towns,  and  counties  are  already 
asking  for  college  graduates  for  this 
service  and  the  Lombard  files  have 
now  requests  for  such  persons,  prop- 
erly trained  and  equipped.

SCHOOL    OF   THREE    ARTS 

The  Three  Arts  Department  is  a 
school  for  the  serious  study  of  Vocal 
Art,  Piano  and  Theory  of  Music,  Pub- 
lic School  Music,  and  Expression. 
High  standards  are  maintained,  and  the 
work  is  subject  to  the  same  regulations 
regarding  attendance  and  examinations 
as  for  other  courses  in  college. 

The  faculty  is  composed  of  special- 
ists in  their  fields,  who  have  added  to 
professional  study,  much  experience  in 
teaching. 

Vocal  Art 

The  courses  in  Vocal  Art  are  design- 
ed to  fit  the  student  for  teaching  in  the 
higher  schools  and  colleges,  or  for 
public  work  in  recital,  oratorio,  or 
opera.  A  striking  feature  of  the  work 
is  the  well-organized  system  of  tech- 
nique employed. 
Piano  and  Theory  of  Music 

The  aim  of  the  teachers  of  Piano  is 
to  develop  the  musician  while  instruct- 
ing the  pianist.  A  two-year  course  in 
normal  methods  for  piano  teachers  is 
offered  leading  to  the  Lombard  College 
Piano  Teacher's   Certificate. 

Upon  the  successful  completion  of 
the  Public  School  Music  Course  under 
direction  of  Jessie  Glaze  Strong,  the 
student  is  recommended  by  the  college 
to  receive  the  Illinois  State  Music 
Teacher's   Certificate. 

Expression   and   Dramatics 

The  courses  in  The  Speech  Arts  aim 
to  develop  a  strong  study  of  the  drama 
and  the  improvement  of  the  every-day 
speech  of  the  student,  preparing  him 
for  extemporaneous  speaking,  story 
telling,  public  speaking,  and  declama- 
tion. The  "Campus  Players"  have  pre- 
sented many  excellent  plays  and 
sketches  and  is  an  important  feature  of 
the   work.

HOME  ECONOMICS 

The  study  of  Home  Economics  is  an 
indispensable  part  of  every  girl's  edu- 
cation. It  trains  a  girl  so  that  she  may 
live  her  life  more  intelligently  as  well 
as  serve  her  community  and  eountry 
more  effectively. 

The  Home  Economics  department  is 
a  live  and  interesting  part  of  Lom- 
bard. The  food  work  is  taught  in  a 
completely  equipped  cooking  labora- 
tory; adjoining  this  is  the  dining  room, 
with  all  the  appointments  of  furnish- 
ings, in  which  the  courses  in  meal  plan- 
ning and  serving  are  taught.  The  Sew- 
ing Courses — Textiles,  Costume  De- 
sign, Millinery  and  Dressmaking,  are 
conducted  in  the  well  equipped  labora- 
tory. The  study  of  House  Furnishing, 
Home  Management,  Dietetics  and 
Methods  of  Teaching  round  out  a 
four  year  course  in   Home   Economics. 

SCIENCE  FOR  WOMEN 

Within  the  last  few  years,  and  espe- 
cially during  the  war  women  have 
proved  their  excellence  or  their  superi- 
ority in  Chemistry  and  Biology.  Lom- 
bard has  placed  graduates  in  attractive 
positions  in  these  sciences  previously 
held  by  men. 

A  recent  woman  graduate  of  Lom- 
bard is  to-day  chief  chemist  of  one  of 
our  large  Western  industries,  going  as 
laboratory  assistant  three  years  ago. 
Another  woman  is  chief  bacteriologist 
in  a  state  laboratory  and  whose  train- 
ing was  entirely  at  Lombard.  We  have 
several  similar  cases  on  our  records. 

This  is  why  Lombard  believes  firmly 
that  its  students  should  not  only  take 
the  cultural  work,  but  should  also  take, 
with  that  work,  enough  of  some  chosen 
specialty,  that  upon  graduation  she  is 
ready  to  accent  a  position  of  responsi- 
bility.

AGRICULTURE 

In  the  midst  of  the  richest  farm  com- 
munity of  America  it  is  only  natural 
that  Lombard  should  have  a  strong 
and  efficient  course  for  those  wishing 
to  study  Agriculture.  With  the  finest 
faculty  available  in  the  subjects  of 
Agricultural  science,  Lombard  offers 
unusual  opportunities  to  high  school 
graduates  who  wish  to  prepare  them- 
selves to  teach  Agriculture  in  our 
high  schools,  for  those  who  wish  to 
go  back  to  the  farm  and  more  efficient- 
ly conduct  this  important  business  and 
for  those  who  desire  to  do  agricultural 
work  at  the  university  after  two  inten- 
sive years   at   Lombard. 

The  work  at  Lombard  has  been  ac- 
cepted by  the  State  University  as 
creditable  and  has  received  the  com- 
mendation of  many  members  of  the 
Knox  County  Farm  Bureau. 

This  work  in  Agriculture  has  be- 
come very  popular  at  Lombard  on  ac- 
count of  its  intensely  practical  nature. 
It  is  carried  along  side  by  side  with 
work  that  is  just  as  theoretical.  Our 
expert  agriculturists  have  proved  that 
this  is  the  best  and  most  efficient  meth- 
od of  not  only  teaching  Agriculture  but 
of  carrying  on   pur  farms. 

BUSINESS  ADMINISTRATION 

The  work  of  this  department  is  in- 
tended to  thoroughly  acquaint  the  stu- 
dent with  principles  of  industrial  and 
commercial  organization. 

Courses  are  offered  which  afford  spe- 
cial training  to  young  men  and  women 
who  are  looking  forward  to  business, 
industrial  expert,  or  teaching  careers.  , 

The  subjects  of  instruction  are  plan- 
ned to  give  that  general  instruction 
which  is  valuable  whatever  the  field  the 
student  intends  to  enter  and  also  to 
furnish  training  especially  adapted  to 
the  particular  careers  chosen.

BIOLOGY 

The  work  in  this  department  aims  to 
provide  special  training  to  young  men 
and  women  who  desire  preparation  to 
teach;  for  state  biological  work;  for 
special  phases  of  medical  research;  for 
commercial  laboratory  work  and  for 
those  who  contemplate  taking  up  the 
study   of   medicine. 

The  subjects  of  instruction  are  so 
planned  as  to  give  that  general  instruc- 
tion which  is  valuable  in  whatever 
phase  of  biological  work  the  student 
intends  to  enter  and  also  to  furnish 
training  especially  adapted  to  the  par- 
ticular career  chosen. 

CHEMISTRY 

As  an  important  part  of  Home  Eco- 
nomics, a  necessity  to  Agriculture,  and 
a  basic  part  of  medical  work,  Chemis- 
try forms  an  important  part  of  the  pro- 
gressive  college  curriculum. 

As  a  most  important  course  of  study, 
by  itself,  Chemistry  offers  more  op- 
portunities than  any  other  single  sub- 
ject. Preparation  is  offered  for  teach- 
ing, research,  industrial  positions  and 
for  other  scientific  administrative  oc- 
cupations. 

The  Chemistry  department  is  excel- 
lently equipped  with  thoroughly  up-to- 
date  apparatus,  and  prepared  to  &;ive 
the  very  finest  instruction  to  those 
specializing  in  this  important   science. 

TOMPKINS    SCIENCE    HALL 

Always  strong  in  Science,  Lombard 
now  steps  into  the  very  front  ranks 
with  the  opening  of  Tompkins  Science 
Hall.  The  commodious  laboratories, 
lecture  rooms,  recitation  rooms,  prep- 
aration and  research  laboratories  and 
up-to-date  equipment  makes  this  latest 
evidence  of  Lombard's  progressive 
work  all  the   more  apparent.

ATHLETICS 

Always  strong  in  athletics,  Lombard 
has  held  an  enviable  position  among 
the  small  and  even  large  colleges  in 
the  state.  The  foot  ball  schedule  in- 
cludes, not  only  the  finest  colleges  of 
our  own  Conference,  but  such  institu- 
tions as  St.  Louis  University,  who  is 
always  looking  for  a  big,  peppy  game. 

This  condition  becomes  possible 
through  the  faculty  interest  in  athletics 
and  a  body  of  students  full  of  the  good 
old  Lombard  spirit  true  to  that  line  of 
the  Lombard  song  which  says: 

"Whether  in  defeat  or  victory, 
"We'll  be  loyal  just  the  same." 

The  1920  foot  ball  team  played  a 
wonderful  season  with  a  large  propor- 
tion of  its  team  freshmen,  all  of  whom 
have  promised  to  return  next  year. 
They  scored  over  230  points  against 
their  opponents'  25  points  and  gave 
their  old  time  rival,  Knox  College,  a 
good  "whaling"  with  a  score  of  24  to  6. 

In  basket  ball  the  same  good  pace 
continued  and  during  the  regular  sea- 
son the  team  won  12  games  out  of  15 
played. 

Base  ball  and  track  are  just  as  suc- 
cessful and  with  the  finest  of  co-opera- 
tion next  year's  athletics  is  bound  to 
be  even  better,  if  possible,  than  this 
year's  results  have  shown. 

THE  NEW  STADIUM 

In  January  the  trustees  voted  that 
with  the  excellent  work  Lombard  was 
doing  in  athletics,  the  one  thing  that 
would  encourage  the  sport  more  than 
anything  else  would  be  the  erection  of 
a  stadium  and  the  rebuilding  of  the 
Lombard  Athletic  field.  The  new  dress- 
ing room  facilities  in  the  gymnasium 
have  already  made  this  building  one  of 
the  finest  in  the  state.  Now  with  the 
fine  athletic  field  and  stadium  Lombard 
will  be  second  to  none  in  its  athletic 
equipment.

PHYSICAL  EDUCATION  FOR 
WOMEN 

Men  do  not  alone  enjoy  athletic 
privileges  at  Lombard,  for  under  an 
efficient  and  trained  Physical  Instructor 
the  girls'  work  has  become  a  pleasure 
to  which  they  look  foward.  Every  girl 
in  the  Freshman  and  Sophomore 
classes,  unless  physically  unfit,  willing- 
ly takes  this  interesting  work  in  physi- 
cal development.  Added  to  the  gym- 
nasium work,  the  girls  have  organized 
teams  for  hikes,  basket  ball,  tennis, 
base  ball,  and  hockey.  Games  and 
tournaments  are  frequent  and  the  en- 
thusiasm of  this  work  runs  in  good 
competition  to  the  work  in  pageantry 
carried  on  by  the  same  classes. 

Pageantry  holds  a  conspicuous  place 
in  the  physical  educational  work  of 
Lombard's  women.  Each  spring  an 
elaborate  production  is  given  under  the 
direction  of  the  Physical  Instructor. 
Some  appropriate  part  of  the  beautiful 
campus  is  selected  for  the  performance 
and  it  is  no  uncommon  sight  to  see  two 
or  three  thousand  of  Lombard's  friends 
from  Galesburg  on  the  campus  to  wit- 
ness the  spectacle.  The  1921  produc- 
tion was  a  rendition  of  Robin  Hood, 
especially  written  and  produced  by 
Miss  Wilma  Scott,  the  Director  of  the 
Department. 

In  all,  athletics  at  Lombard  is  an  im- 
portant feature  of  college  life  and  in- 
cludes practically  one  hundred  per  cent 
of  all  the  students.
